Forest Saved from Sugar Plantations in Uganda?

“Uganda’s cabinet suspended the proposal by President Yoweri Museveni to give 7,100 hectares or nearly a third of Mabira Forest to Mehta’s sugar estate in May, following a public outcry…

“Critics said razing part of Mabira would have threatened rare species, dried up a watershed for streams that feed Lake Victoria and removed a crucial buffer against pollution of the lake from two industrial towns.”
